THE MOST TRUSTED SOURCE ON BECOMING A BETTER LEADER
About the Author:
In this 20-minute video program, the bestselling authors of The Leadership Challenge, James M. Kouzes and Barry Z. Posner, explore the importance of employee recognition and appreciation. They present real-life case examples to illustrate the types of creative reinforcements leaders can give to truly motivate top performance.
Based on Kouzes and Posner's groundbreaking leadership model—The Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership®—Encouraging the Heart delves deep into one of the most difficult practices. While many people assume that money is a key motivator, Kouzes and Posner clearly show that personal, heart-felt appreciation is the ultimate incentive. The DVD is filled with examples of managers helping others believe in themselves, celebrate their uniqueness, and discover their own value. You'll visit a Massachusetts-based software company, The MathWorks; Michigan-based natural gas and electric utility company, Consumers Energy; a nonprofit agency in Silicon Valley, Sunnyvale Community Services; and New Jersey-based Honeywell Commercial Aviation to see the power of encouragement in action.
This instructional leadership development program shows how to master one of the most perplexing and valuable leadership skills of all. Participants will learn about the seven essentials for Encouraging the Heart—set clear standards, expect the best, pay attention, tell the story, personalize recognition, celebrate together, and set the example.
Backed by over twenty years of original research with data from more than one million leaders, The Leadership Challenge is a comprehensive leadership development program. This?must-have instructional tool for Encouraging the Heart is a perfect introduction or refresher course for your leaders.
